Need help pulling engine S5 N/A

So far all I need to do is take the motor mounts out but I dont know wich bolts to loosen. Thiers four bolts on the left side of engine connected to only one bolt and the right side has only one bolt total I think. Wich ones do I disconect? I would disconect all four but I dont want to waste time if I dont have to...

You need to keep the "mounts" still on the engine. If you get under the car you will see there is one NUT on each motor mnt. Just take those off and it will pull right out.

Once you take those 2 nuts off, the engine will sit just as it would normally. No need to lift it WHILE you take the nuts off. After they are off just pull the engine straight up to get the studs out of the holes they mount in.
